Yara Birkeland - a global game changer
summary
Yara and Kongsberg build a world's first fully electric autonomous ballast free container feeder that shifts 25,000 containers per year from road to sea, cutting emissions and local truck congestion. System combines sensor fusion, situational awareness, autonomous navigation and remote shore control centers, plus a 7 MWh battery pack — currently the largest maritime installation — and staged on‑board trials before unmanned operation. Norway helps shape regulation while the project integrates cloud services, digital twins and lifecycle monitoring.
